Cross Browser SOAP/WSDL Support

My latest project that is taking up all my blogging time is very slick. I think it's safe to say we will blow all our competition out of the water once again :). In any case, we are doing a lot of AJAX communication with the server. I really liked the way Microsoft approached AJAX in ATLAS by using WebService calls to communicate back to the server, so I wanted to follow a similar approach with Articulate Online. The problem though is that there isn't a standard way to make webservice calls in the browser yet. Atlas will support this, but Atlas is still beta :(. So until then, there is a cool lightweight SOAP/WSDL javascript lib that you might want to check out:

Works in both IE and Moz. It's not a million lines of code and it gets the job done for the simple kinds of AJAX calls most people will be making. And hey, it's javascript, so if you need to add a feature or two, just open up a text editor and do it.
